He Who Waits

A man sits inside a narrow, gridded room, its walls forming a quiet cage around him. The architecture is precise—bars, panels, measured lines enclosing his body. Yet beyond the rigid structure, a deep blue sky opens, scattered with red, star-like blooms. His skin is rendered in deliberate strokes, each mark carrying weight and memory—like a constellation mapped across flesh. The room contains him, but it does not define him. Pattern travels between wall and garment, space and body intertwined in a subtle symbiosis.
